SBB: Photovoltaics portfolio analysis

SBB owns and operates one of the largest building portfolios in Switzerland. The numerous roofs of its buildings and infrastructure facilities offer great potential for the use of solar energy. Basler & Hofmann developed a methodology that enables an automated initial assessment of roof surfaces.

Obtaining an overview of more than 10,000 roof surfaces is challenging and only possible with automated processes and algorithms. For a potential study, Basler & Hofmann developed a method that enables an automated initial assessment of the roof areas.
